What Is The Bump On The Upper Part Of My Nose And How To Treat It?
Hi
I have a small hard like bump on my upper part of my nose next to my right eye. It seems to be lighter in color than the rest of my face. It also feels though I could remove it easily but I don't want to do that in fear of it being something like a skin cancer. There is no pain at all from it and I touch it very often.
What can this be and how to treat it please?

Hi.
To understand in the first place , the lump in on the face- the most presentable part of the face.; I mean you should do not do something that this will turn into a bad scar for lifetime. This is not a skin cancer fr sure.
From the history you have provided , i think this can be a a sebaceous cyst or a dermoid.
Since this part is very important for aesthetics and anatomically, I would advise you to visit a Doctor to ascertain the diagnosis.
